SAO PAULO (Reuters) - Flamengo's spectacular season continued on Sunday with another win, their 14th in the last 16 games, as Brazil's Serie A champions beat last year’s winners Palmeiras 3-1 away.

Giorgian De Arrascaeta put Flamengo ahead after four minutes before striker Gabriel Barbosa, whose double won the Copa Libertadores last weekend, scored another brace with a goal either side of halftime.

Palmeiras, who started the day in joint second place, got a consolation goal through Matheus Fernandes with six minutes left but were booed by their own fans as their winless streak extended to five matches.
